/v/ didn't help me so I'm going to ask here. How am I supposed to set this up? Whenever I try to load a ROM all I get is a black screen. I've downloaded and updated the core and I placed the BIOs in the right folder so I have no idea what's the deal here. I only know it's not the cue file because none of the games work

Make sure your cues are pointing in the right direction first.
I had this same exact issue, what fixed it for me was extracting each game zip to a normal folder, after each game had its own individual folder I scanned each directory individually.
The games appeared fine and no black screen when trying to run.
If the above 2 things don't work, create an account (for free) and download your ps1 roms from redump, then try those 2 things again https://archive.org/download/psx_redump_usa_20141221

What are you playing?
>>3801280
you need all the psx bios, not just the one for the region you want to use. i had this same problem because i only downloaded the NA one.

>through Retroarch
Um, why don't you just use mednafen by itself? Or is editing a config file and not having a gooey too scary for you?

Because they're dumb enough to use retroarch in the first place.
